چکیده

A system of singularly perturbed ordinary differential equations of first order with given initial conditions is considered. The leading term of each equation is multiplied by a small positive parameter. These parameters are not necessarily equal. The components of the solution exhibit overlapping layers. A Shishkin piecewise– uniform mesh is constructed, which is used, in conjunction with a classical finite difference discretisation, to form a new numerical method for solving this problem. It is proved, in a special case, that the numerical approximations obtained from this method are essentially first order convergent uniformly in all of the parameters. Numerical results are presented in support of the theory.

A Parameter Uniform Numerical Scheme for Singularly Perturbed Differential-difference Equations with Mixed Shifts

In this paper, we consider a second-order singularly perturbed differential-difference equations with mixed delay and advance parameters. At first, we approximate the model problem by an upwind finite difference scheme on a Shishkin mesh. We know that the upwind scheme is stable and its solution is oscillation free, but it gives lower order of accuracy. So, to increase the convergence, we propo...

Numerical method for a system of second order singularly perturbed turning point problems

In this paper, a parameter uniform numerical method based on Shishkin mesh is suggested to solve a system of second order singularly perturbed differential equations with a turning point exhibiting boundary layers. It is assumed that both equations have a turning point at the same point. An appropriate piecewise uniform mesh is considered and a classical finite difference scheme is applied on t...

An efficient numerical method for singularly perturbed second order ordinary differential equation

In this paper an exponentially fitted finite difference method is presented for solving singularly perturbed two-point boundary value problems with the boundary layer. A fitting factor is introduced and the model equation is discretized by a finite difference scheme on an uniform mesh. Thomas algorithm is used to solve the tri-diagonal system. The stability of the algorithm is investigated. It ...

A Parameter Robust Method for Singularly Perturbed Delay Differential Equations

Uniform finite difference methods are constructed via nonstandard finite difference methods for the numerical solution of singularly perturbed quasilinear initial value problem for delay differential equations. A numerical method is constructed for this problem which involves the appropriate Bakhvalov meshes on each time subinterval. The method is shown to be uniformly convergent with respect t...

Numerical method for singularly perturbed fourth order ordinary differential equations of convection-diffusion type

In this paper, we have proposed a numerical method for singularly perturbed  fourth order ordinary differential equations of convection-diffusion type. The numerical method combines boundary value technique, asymptotic expansion approximation, shooting method and  finite difference method. In order to get a numerical solution for the derivative of the solution, the given interval is divided  in...
